Okay. Obviously, everyone here want to go fast, so we do all the turbo and ****.

I'm talking about S13, Stock KA24e, de clears 1/4 miles in 15 seconds or so, but lots of other 240s which makes like 300~400 horse power, only clear quarter mile in 13~14 second. Did someone just stoned my head? I know stock SR is faster than that. Some of RB25 owners only break 12, 13 seconds.

This is weird. If you got power, you should go fast. But obviously, 800 horse power RB26dett from ***** Modified Magazine takes 12.7 seconds to clear 1/4. What's happening?

I know this's very stupid, but i need to know why those cars suck; what are they missing? Are they using 4 season made in china 'Just tire' rubber?

I thought stock SR's run like a 14.2 or something... they're not that fast...

Ivan ran a 10.9 1/4 with 630hp KA-T.. Struture ran an 11.2 1/4 with 533hp...

I takes a lot of power to get from a 14 to a 13... and a hell of a lot to hit 12's and 11's... in a 240.
